1974-1022-Case-Western-missing-tape
Need recording
This talk is mentioned in the 10/23 talk but the audio file is missing. Published as Zen, Spiritual Steps & Spiritual Systems in TAT Journal (Nov. 2005).
It has been published in the TAT Journal - that's how I know about it - and I actually did the transcription - but I don' have a copy of the audio.
Would you mind listening to it a little to see if it's the same one. I'm going to paste the first part of the lecture below.
Thanks very much -- Steve
Zen, Spiritual Steps & Spiritual Systems
~ From a 1974 talk in Cleveland, Ohio—Part 1 of 4
by Richard Rose
There are several things that I want to discuss tonight. To those who have done some digging in Zen, you'll find that it's difficult to talk on Zen—because the majority of it more or less gives you the impression that you shouldn't even be talking, and even action is rather foolish if you're aiming at the discovery of a universe that is illusory. You get this little hint if you read on Zen.
There are many other ideas that are associated with Zen. At a lecture in Pittsburgh, I found several people very disappointed because I knew nothing of Zen archery or tea ceremony, or Zen poetry, or Zen art. As Augie said [in the introduction] we're here to find ourselves, not pictures. Or not objective experimentation. I don't care to evaluate in depth too many authorities on Zen, although I can't escape some sort of comparison; you all come from somewhere if you've read Zen. But I think if you've dug into it deeply enough, you'll find that there is a universal objective. And the main objective of a life of Zen is to find definition, to find your real self. And this differs from some religious movements and even some Zen movements in that they may find for you peace of mind, or some rare talent....
Etc.
